Mount Emei

In depth

<p > climbing to the Golden Summit, golden statues of Samantabhadra from all directions shine in the sunlight, and on sunny days, you can see the wonders of 'Buddha's light' and sea of clouds. At the foot of the mountain, the beamless brick hall and the elephant-riding bronze statue of Samantabhadra at Wannian Temple are proof of millennia-old faith. </p><p> The monkey area halfway up the mountain is famous for its 'road-seeking monkeys'—both adorable and wary. Along the way, the sound of Qingyin Pavilion and the Stream of One Line of Sky babbles gently, washing away the fatigue of climbing. Emei's beauty lies in the perfect harmony of the mountain, Buddha, and monkey in the same frame </p>
